This is how I know the real estate market is way too crazy. People are renting dumpsters.

PCMCIA cards are still being used. Cable companies use them for the authorization part of your channel lineup. When the federal government mandated that boxes have renewable security so customers could potentially "own" their own cable box. PCMCIA was the method. You would buy your own box, and the cable company would supply the card. Same thing they did for TIVOS.
